Superb images. Praise enough there Bruno for a true UK rarity that Alan posted. If we didn't share these images then we may never know what's truly out there. Keep 'em coming.
Are there any more Pakistan 78's lurking out there - the labels are fantastic and to think these survive at all is amazing.

Hi rich, there are 6 Pakistan 78,s but how many have survived is anyone's guess,Alan

Elvisrich · **Posted:** Sat Sep 17, 2011 8:44 am

Thanks Alan. Have we actually seen images of all these as well or are some just talked about in folklore?
If anyone has these beauties we'd all love to see them.
Rich

There is a book on worldwide 78's. I have not seen a copy myself so I can't say how good it is but it was published by the author Andre Helling Freiligrathstr. 274, 26386 Wilhelmshaven, Germany or via email under info@elvis-on-78.de.

Leave it to our neighbours to make good researched books on
Elvis vinyl and Shellacs... Though I dont know that particular book on worldwide
78s myself... Jans will probably know? But don't exspect to see as many
different ones as posted on this topic...ever!
Let's face it... thru history we've beaten the Germans on everything, always...!
Except with football, once or twice.

I have this book too..its a pity that it is only photocopies..and it is not so complete as I would love to be....

but its lot better than nothing..is there hope that someone will be working..on this matter?..

It's a good book with 1300 different 78,s listed but the photos are ok but not clear on the gold print 78,s like Pakistan hmv,s, still a good book though packed with world wide information.

I haven't asked for some time, but what's the situation on the
HMV's book, Alan? Has Mr Minto made any progress in making up
his mind what and what not to include, if its ever going to see a release?!
Any serious offers from a publisher yet?
Man, if only the situation would have been different 10 years ago
when I had offered to do the book... The longer you guys wait, the less
chance there is selling a decent amount of copies. In the recent issue
of Trevor's Now Dig This magazine there's a great story on one of the
few surviving vinyl/shellac collectors shops in the UK... These shops
won't be around for long...save a few. Neither will the customers be,
with most in their sixties by now...!

Hi Ger not heard from Gordon if I have anything to report in the future I'll let you know,Alan

Elvisrich · **Posted:** Sun Sep 18, 2011 6:58 am

Now that would be a book I would buy. I'm stating the obvious but if an when it's made please have it in full colour. So many of these books are let down by b&w images of beautifully coloured records.
Just my tuppence worth.

If lucky, you should have the book by 2020... :mrgreen:

just a little tease, Alan.
Gordon Minto is an excellent writer and singer of Gordon Lightfood
songs... but should leave book projects to others.
